Title: New Rear Brake Rotor - Pics
Post by: Lotsokids on October 02, 2014, 01:49:51 PM
I recently noticed my rear brake rotor disk was separating where the notch is. Living in Hungary, my options for shipping is limited, plus I don't have $250 for a new one. Solution? Ebay disk from China. About $90 including shipping to Hungary. It arrived in 6 DAYS! That's incredible.

I learned that the front and rear disks are the same size. A GSX-R rider at work refused to believe it.

The old disk with separation:

Not only are they the same size, but I believe they are the same part number ... :drinks:
